This is Ana and me somewhere between Clutter V and Clutter VI. As you can see, I’m not Leon. Although a lot of Leon’s story uses facts from my own life, I didn’t once think about including my own face in the game (like some of the reviewers thought I did). There is an Ana, but she’s not that picture either. I called her Ana because of my Ana and Brazil, but that’s where the similarities end. That pic was taken about 8 years ago.
Joe is not Leon
Anyone who's played the original Clutter game knows a little bit about Joe. Joe is not Leon, but some of the details of Joe's life were worked into the story. Here are just some of the real facts of Joe's 65-Plus years of life.
Joe was born in a little town called Penacook N.H., a voting district of Concord N.H. but a separate town (population was about 3000 back then). Joe attended Immaculate Conception School until 6th grade and then attended Merrimack Valley High School. Joe decided to attend Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, NY. Joe graduated in 1979 with a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics. Joe only took one computer course at RPI.Joe moved on to work at iWin creating the highly successful Mah Jong Quest I, II and III (and little game called Sproink). After leaving iWin at the end of 2009 to work on his own games he joined an Atlanta Slots/Gaming company beginning in 2011 and ending in 2013. Joe now devotes 100% of his time to Puzzles By Joe and The Clutter Series.
I can’t wait! Clutterville was the BEST yet. I hope Clutter 6 has music as great as Clutterville. Some of the earlier versions I’ve had to turn off the music after awhile. Clutterville had everything just right!
Thanks Jude:
Nice to hear that my efforts to pick better music was appreciated.
Joe
You’re welcome Joe. But pleeeze — waiting anxiously for Clutter 6! When is it coming?
I had purchased Clutter V but recently changed computers. Is there a way to download it again?
Thanks for all of the wonderful games.

I sent you a new link.
Glad you’re enjoying the games.
I LOVE Clutter V. Lots of different games to keep me occupied. I really missed your commentary when you quit posting them. If people didn’t like the commentary, then just put an option to skip it somewhere.
Maybe in Clutter VI (I hope there is a VI), could you please have some of the puzzle pieces animals? Cats, dogs, farm animals, and zoo animals would give the game a whole new look.
Thanks! Keep the games coming!
Joe, I am a little confused on Clutter 5, I assumed that from the opening instructions that we start at the Gold Quest. But what is the Silver and the Pyrate. I can play any of them. Does it matter where I start?
Thanks
Love Clutter 5. I doubt I will see sunshine again for quite some time because I can’t stop playing/hunting for matches. To answer your question about having or working on Clutter 6….YES!!!! Love all the new objects…they are slowing me down until I become more familiar with them. Love the feature where you can skip anything….I can only deal with so many three on a match before needing to skip those. I’m losing to the tube badly…I need to work on that one because it’s fun. Thanks for what you do…and yes, keep going, on to 6 and more.
